Pages: I have a very long page and am unable to save edits
-
One of my pages (http://write-inronpaul.com/state-rules/) is super long. I’m unable to use the “Write Page” editor to add any more content. When I scroll down in the edit window, add my content in the “visual” editor and then switch to “html” editor, the content near where I added it is gone and so is all the content below. I haven’t saved the page in fear of losing that content. I noticed this only after the interface went into effect.
Is there a limit to how many bytes or the length of a page can be?

There isn’t any limit as far as I know. I’ve done a post with 13000 words. If I were you I’d copy everything in the post box and NOT switch to the code editor for any reason, then save it. See if it saves everything. If not, you can just paste from what you saved.
If switching to the code editor causes things to vanish, why would you do it? I know it shouldn’t work that way, but what are you trying to add or tweak there? Maybe there’s a visual editor workaround.

I advice you to type out your long material in MS Word and just copy paste the content in your writing space.

Do not copy direct from MS Word as it brings in all sorts of code that will quite possibly break your blog.
If you use word, then paste it into the wordpress editor using the “paste from word” icon on the extended toolbar so that it will strip out all the MS Word code. MS Word DOES NOT KNOW HTML.

Veerender, please don’t leave a link signature in your posts; it’s not the Done Thing around here, and since your name is already a clickable link to your blog, it just makes you look spammy. It’s unnecessary.
